Todd Hood, 26, was stopped by police last Sunday after an officer saw a vehicle matching the description a vehicle seen at one of the burglaries and after a stop, officers found that Hood matched a description provided by a victim, Lt. Tim Cougle of the Auburn Police Department said in a release. Hood was arrested and charged with burglary.

Police arrested Victor Mitchell, 38, on the charge of burglary on late Thursday afternoon, Cougle said.

Several items have been recovered in the investigation, which involves Auburn police, the Androscoggin County Sheriff's Department and the state police. A series of daytime residential burglaries began about three weeks ago, Cougle said.
